Idk is it's true but i've heard it said that North Korea praises their leader family as gods... Like as the Japanese emperor was God. What you are describing sounds like Oregon... But a lot of woo arises there in opposition to religious belief. "Allow there to be a spectrum in all that you see" - Neil Degrasse Tyson |

You see the present state constitution, like most state constitutions, recognizes God in the preamble. But it is somewhat obviously hypocritical for the state to have laws that support activity that is opposed to the morality of the religions recognized as supportive of the described god. And since the economy of Nevada is so good, it is logical reasoning to reason that Nedvada would be better served if it were to go full bore atheist. Lot of atheists are going to have a hard time accepting that comparative religion will be taught in their schools. Humanism - ontological doctrine that posits that humans define reality Theism - ontological doctrine that posits a supernatural entity creates and defines reality Atheism - political doctrine opposed to theist doctrine in public policy I am right, and you are wrong - I hope you die peacefully ![]() |

My first thought was "I hope he means secular, not atheist". But since you do seem to mean atheist, then I'm against the idea because it goes against personal freedom. Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims. Science is not a subject, but a method. ![]() |
